"According to these texts, after being baptised, Jesus fasted for forty days and nights in the desert. During this time, the devil appeared to Jesus and tempted him to demonstrate his supernatural powers as proof of his divinity, each temptation being refused by Jesus with a quote of scripture from the Book of Deuteronomy....Deuteronomy 6:13, which refers to a rejection of idolatry, to reject power over all the kingdoms of the world. In Matthew, Jesus also says Get away from me, Satan, the only place in the whole story that the word Satan is used to refer to the devil. Deuteronomy 6:16, which admonishes the Israelites for testing God, to reject jumping and relying on divine rescue. Some Christians extrapolate from this a rejection of Antinomianism since it is a quote from Moses. Deuteronomy 8:3, which refers to a need to have spiritual as well as physical sustenance, to reject a solution to hunger. Unlike Matthew, Luke abbreviates the quote, neglecting to include the part that states that man should live by everything that proceeds out of the mouth of God. The part of this quote that is in both Luke and Matthew - man shall not live by bread alone- has today become a common expression, which some take to refer to a need for spirituality, but most use in the opposite sense, to justify material luxuries." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temptation_of_Christ
